This image was shot at the same time as narrower field H-alpha shot with Meade LX200 12" and QHY9 astro camera.

INFO

IC 405 locates in constellation Auriga and it's an emission/reflection nebula. Reflection component can't be seen in my image, since I'm shooting only narrowband data and reflection part is broadband target.

Distance from Oulu, Finland, is about 1500 light years. Nebula is about 5 light years across.
